gregg: mike emanuel is live on capitol hill. mike, any indication of the president's next move? >> reporter: well, gregg, last time we heard the president talk about the this matter he said he was calling on congressional leaders to essentially make sure taxes do not go up on middle class americans. presumably that would be a package that continues the bush tax cuts for those making up to $250,000. he would also like to continue emergency unemployment benefits for two million americans. and beyond that, details are kind of murky at this point. so we await the president to get back to washington. we know that the senate will be back in session today. we know there have been some conversations back and forth but at this point no indication that steps have moved forward closer to a deal, gregg. gregg: so, mike, if the senate comes back, what do we expect from them today? and then obviously the house? >> reporter: well, house speaker john boehner is in ohio. his aides told me a few moments ago ago if he has plans to travel. last night the speaker and the president of the united stat

because mike never screamed, he never shouted. when you turn on television these days you hear a lot of guys being aggressive and screaming. mike never had to do that, never raised his voice. he raised his eyebrow and that could be devastating. he also did something very few people have picked up which is not complicated. when somebody stopped talking, mike would be silent. he wouldn't come in right away with another question, and very odd, people don't like silence and very often when a guy, mike was trying to break down was confronted with silence, he started saying something he shouldn't have said. >> we had fun with actress ali wentworth star of her yahoo! show and someone who likes to dish on her husband, george stephanopoulos. >> george is a private person so -- but this is a joyous thing, howard, ali and george coming together. i gave him, obviously, a rough draft of the book and said do you have a problem with this? he loved it because it is a sweet story, it is our story. i'm not twittering pictures of him on the toilet.
